Trouble installing xp

when rebooting after the initial installation it goes to trouble reading disk. hit any key to restart, just stays on that screen. restarted in windows and still goes to the blinking cursor.

Hi Paul,
when using FAt32 as file system for Windows, you have to reformat the Windows partition during the setup process, since the BootCamp Assistant only does a kind of pre-formatting which isn't sufficient.
See here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1722
If you are not getting the opportunity to reformat duricng the setup (as it seems to happen with some newer XP CDs) have a look at 'Robert Loney' post in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9716545&#9716545
Hope it helps
Stefan

  • Trouble installing 2.1.1 for ipod touch generation 1

    I am having troubles installing 2.1.1 ipod touch software on a gen. 1 ipod touch. I am using an IMac G5, itunes 8, OS 10.5.4 and the process of updating in itunes has frozen with the blue candy stripe bar spinning as it says "preparing iPod software for restore."
    The ipod is black with an white apple and a spinning wheel.
    It's been about 5 hours.
    What should I do?
    Cheers.

    Just found some info on apple support.
    Updating your iPhone and iPod touch to iPhone software 2.0 or later for the first time
    Software updates prior to iPhone software 2.0 updated the device without affecting your settings or media content. Updating your iPhone and iPod touch from iPhone software 1.x to 2.0 or later includes a back up, erase, and then restore of your device prior to installing the new update. iTunes will offer to create a one-time media backup of your device depending on what content is on your device and what content is stored in the iTunes Library you are connected to. You should ensure that you have enough free space on your Mac or PC to accommodate a backup that matches the capacity of your iPhone or iPod touch (4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, or 32 GB) if you proceed with the this backup.
    As a result of this comprehensive one-time media backup, this process can take some time. The amount of time, is determined by the amount of data on the iPhone or iPod touch.
    7 hours and counting. Stay tune. Maybe by tomorrow morning!

  • Hello i am having trouble installing itunes 10.5 on my laptop i have windows vista. it says error 7 windows error 998. i now have no itunes. i have tried to uninstall itunes but it still wont work and keep coming up with that message. please help!

    hello
    i am having major trouble installing itunes. i had itunes working fine and i went to update it as it told me there was an update which i thought i did. i went on my laptop the next day and it said "itunes was not installed correctly error 7 windows error 998"
    i read a few articles on here but i am having no joy. i uninstalled itunes and reinstalled and that did not work. i also unistalled some other apple things cant remember the names sorry!
    i am not a whiz on a computer so really need some help please!!

    Installing, and uninstalling, applications never touches or removes the data.
    Clean out and uninstall all the apple programs and software thru Programs and manually.
    Might want to use Revo and CCleaner
    I always use manual standalone installers (and keep a couple backup versions)
    itunes 10.5 may affect iTunes media playlists, not sure, depends on what you have.
    A search of these forums will show some threads.
    I'd clean up vista, you need SP2 or later, and specific error message?
    I wonder as you arenot the first with a dell if maybe the OS or included software.
    Security programs like Norton and older versions of Kaspersky have been implicated.
    Also settings in IE that affect pop-ups and plug-ins.

    Try the following:  On the Windows 7 computer go to the Devices and Printers folder, Add a Printer, Local Printer, Create a new port, Local port, Next, \\xpcomputername\lj3015 (where you put in the actual share name of the computer and printer), OK, Windows Update (and wait for the list to repopulate), HP Laserjet 3015 PCL5,  Next, Next.

It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go. The printer does'nt show up. I'm fairly new to the Mac, after switching from windows. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

    Hold down the option key and select

  • Trouble Installing Windows 8.1 on Yosemite

    I am having trouble installing Windows 8.1 using the Bootcamp utility on OS X Yosemite. I downloaded the ISO file for 64 bit 8.1 from Microsoft and put it onto an 8gb USB drive using Bootcamp. My Macbook Pro is an early 2011 (MacBookPro8,2) and is currently running OS X 10.10.1. I know that my MBP doesn't usually support booting from a USB, so I modified the info.plist file using the steps outlined in this thread:
    Enable Bootcamp to install from usb for OSX 10.9**WORKS**
    This got it to give me the option to boot from the USB when I held the option key on startup.
    I have tried the following methods for installing with different errors for each:
    1. Installing using Bootcamp created partition
    For this, I went through the normal steps in bootcamp and when I got to the disk partitioning stage, I tried to format the drive 0 partition 4 using the format button. After formatting, it wouldn't allow me to continue because of this error: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk the selcted disk har an MR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can only be installed to GPT disks." This lead me to this thread: Windows can't be installed on Drive 0 Partition 4.. It mentions a difference between EFI v. preUEFI installations, but I don't know how to do a preUEFI installation. Enlighten me anyone?
    2. Creating a "free space" partition with Disk Utility
    For this, I created a free space partition in disk utility and used the Window's installer to format the partition. This allows me to get to the very end of installation, but I get the error message: "Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration. Installation cannot proceed."
    BTW, FileVault is turned off.
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi mgallego,
    Which step did the error start to occur ?Have you tried to install it again to have a check ?As the information stated, we can restart the machine to have a check.
    Here is a link for reference of the requirements of the Windows 8.1 .
    System requirements

    There may be a hardware issue here, it is also recommended to look for help from the manufacturer for help.

    Why would a job require Reader 8? All older files are compatible with newer versions. Or at least they should be.

  • Having trouble installing Photoshop  Elements 13. [was: I wonder if somehow I might have went to Creative cloud because something crossed my screen, but I am not used to doing this so]

    I could really use Customer Service help. I received Photoshop Elements as a gift for Christmas...I waiting until i got a new laptop so that I could use that as i was having trouble with older computer. However, I am having trouble installing the software...I swear the dvd added the programs, and I saw them in files explorer i think, but then I cannot find or I was not even able to add the serial number to my knowledge, because it was blank...no keystrokes were shown...and i don't see the program anywhere...Could I have down something wrong and it is somewhere in the cloud?

    Thank you. That's what I first thought that I didn't need to do anything
    but install from the dvd drive. However after the agreement, it asks me to
    sign in at adobe. (Sorry, I'm a little tired of looking at this right
    now)...I'll try again tomorrow.
    There is no one that I see how to start using the program as I must sign
    in. However, I have never been able to get the number to your firm. Or get
    the correct number... I think I clicked on a learning tutorial or browsed
    Adobe's website to learn more, but got caught up in all the details.
    I never uninstalled virus protection to run it because I thought that it
    would ask. I'll try again tomorrow I am frustrated. Thank you for your
    patience. I appreciate it totally. It's really sad cause I really wanted to
    create. I have wanted this for a very long time and I can't believe how
    difficult this has been. It would be really nice to know what is really
    wrong. I must not be seeing something or I've done something.

    Yes, your fonts are locked. This is a known issue with different older versions of Adobe products if they are mixed. You need to take ownership and set their permissions to full access. There is some article on it in the knowledge base, but you might just as well do a web search on a more generic level about such procedures. An abbreviated summary of how to is contained in this article on my page (Security section).

  • Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro?

    Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.7.5?

    Thanks for your help here is what I did so far!
    I have uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it, I've tried restarting my browser, then my MacBook Pro without any success!
    When I click on the Apple in the upper left hand corner and open System Preferences I can see Adobe Flash Player on the bottom under the Other section.
    If I open Adobe up and check the version it tells me that I have the most recent version!
    I even uninstalled Adobe and installed the newest Beta version, but Adobe is still not working! If I check for the latest version it tells me that I do have the latest beta version, but it still doesn't work!
    If the person who made the video used any other video player it works!
    Their player, plays the video without a problem!
